Not gonna work. There goes revenue for you. Byebye.I understand what the issue is but you haven't dealt with the scammers properly? Fun.

The Following Rule Will Become Active on the 1st of March : Connecting several accounts simultaneously is only tolerated in the context of the trading or banking. Using 2 or more accounts at the same time to farm dungeons or to grind levels/gold is ABSOLUTELY forbidden.

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. You tried to make people stop dual clienting prior and look how that turned out.

I think the second new rule concerning multiple alts should be revised as it's much harder to enforce or find evidence for.

Plus there may be cases of players making false reports (quite easy to do).

Although it will require developer work, FD or MO limit would accomplish what you're trying to achieve without leaving for vagueness/edge cases or people being banned for not understanding the rules.

(I.E: If two players are account sharing and have those two accounts logged in helping one another and the two accounts have been logged in from both computers previously that too would be in violation of that rule and currently is VERY common).

The Following Rule Will Become Active on the 1st of March : Connecting several accounts simultaneously is only tolerated in the context of the trading or banking. Using 2 or more accounts at the same time to farm dungeons or to grind levels/gold is ABSOLUTELY forbidden.

you know i love grand fantasia with all my heart and i have so much passion ,like it's literatly my favorite game in the whole world, but these new rules broke my heart and love for grandfantasia thanks i guess it's time to move on finally after 6 1/2 years of non stop playing almost every single day on gf and go to a different one, it was fun while it lasted tho. i pray for these rules to not be active because they are horrible and i want to enjoy the game not be pushed away. 😭

These new rules are bollocks. Especially the ones centered around plvling. Our player base is much MUCH smaller than other servers. Choosing to blindly mimick a completely different server just sounds like such a terrible idea. There's also way too many gray areas under these new rules, like...im allowed to buy plvl from other players but not myself? Where is the logic in that? You're still giving the impression that breezing through levels is still a good thing, just packaging it in a slightly more annoying way. lol. Under the new rules, it would technically be an OKAY thing to "sell" plvl to myself.

Note: The new rules start from March 1st. The old rules will remain until then. We appreciate your feedback - feedback thread

First of all i want to thank everybody for writing here, it's very nice to see the community so active and interested.

Sencondly, I want to apologize for the way the rules were published. The launch of the forum was accelerated due to technical reasons and this rushed the whole process, forcing me to bring up the new rules bofore I had planned. I understand this is not the way we all want the important changes to be implemented and I can only promise to try to improve the communication in the future.

This said, I've read the whole feedback you posted here, all what anybody wrote to me on Discord, we were talking in the team and I we decided the following:

- About the Prepaid, Rixty, AP card trade:

I would like to explain first the reasons of this measure. We can see this trade is a useful tool for players to reach the higher levels of the Loyalty Programs and/or to gain access to AP content without a big spent of money. However, it is also a terribly useful tool for botters, scammers and all kind of exploiters, since it makes it relatively easy to take the money out of the game and convert it into real money.

As we regularly see, exploits and account security are two of the biggest concerns for most of the players (just last week we could see the Phishing attack and how fast scammers can loot an account for gold, with the hope of converting this gold into real money or into AP they can try to convert in other Aeria games), so we can't take this issue lightly.

I have seen the feedback about this rule is mixed, ncerns being mainly about the game balance and the potential rise on the prices of the high-tier TS items. We do share your concern about this, and we will monitorize the evolution of the prices and think about ways to adapt the Loyalty Programs to re-balance this difference, but the necessity of this rule feels too big in this moment to remove it. Another concern is the difficulty of tracking this trade and the possibility of this rule to lead to a witch hunt on the server. I can only say about this that I always try to get enough evidence about an infraction before sanctioning an account and I will be extra careful about these reports since it's a new topic and it will be really easy to report players wrongfully during the first weeks/months.

- About the Multiclienting rule:

Again, the reasons of these rule are fundamentally two: in the first place, the constant increment of the ammount of gold in the server is creating recurring issues, raising the prices of all utility items and making the game very difficult for new or casual players. Second, again, a multiclienting ban would be a very useful tool to fight exploits.

The feedback in this case has been generally against the measure, which has made me reconsider this rule. I understand that this rule combined with the one concerning AP trade can make the differences between spenders and non-spenders too big and prevent some dedicated players to gear to the top level. Moreover, there is the risk of a general drop on the played hours and on the interest in the game for many players, a risk big enough to make us reconsider this decision and work on finding alternative ways to decrease the ammount of gold in the server.

tl;dr

Multiclienting will be permitted, AP trading won't.

Thanks a lot again for your help here and your engagement with the game,

The rules are utterly pointless it's far too late to think you have the RIGHT to add rules like these. They should have been implemented... let's say 8 years ago. Complete lack of interest and communication with your player base they have established their own rules and economy. It just doesn't make any sense to try and get involved now. Also rules that should have been established before the creation of ur fresh start server but whatever man you do you, maybe you'll get it right one day.

As much as I didn't like the new rules either, mainly the multi logging one, this is their game not ours and they can do whatever they want with it. We can be mad at them all we want and if they make stupid choices we can call them out on it, but to say they don't have the RIGHT to make rules for their own game shows incredible arrogance. But whatever man, you do you...

actually if you want to be picky about it is not their game it is XLs. They are simply the publishers. And of course they can do whatever they want I simply said it to put emphasis on their complete lack of communication over the years and involvement with the game other thab their cash shop. I wouldn't particularly say I'm mad about it, minor details like these don't impact players like me that have been around for many years and created a fortune. It impacts this new players that will struggle to reach a sustainable level in a game that is alive mostly for it's PvP content and their sources of income has become very limited. They either need to grind for months on a single account or spend 100s$ to reach a level of all the current players. But yeah man you do you keep up the police act.
